I think the fact that there is so much pressure being placed on Sinclair to cave is a travesty of free speech. As much as Moore and his Fahrenheit 911 and its lies and deception was lauded as an expose of Bush, so others should be given the opportunity to state their side of Kerry's actions, and like Bush he and the Democrats should be given the opportunity to tell their side of the story. When Dan Rather and his concocted documents were the news of the day I didn't hear the Democrats cry out that there should first be absolute proof - NO Bush was guilty and the documents were true. With O'Reilly the Democrats are hanging out to dry although their is just a she says and no he says.

Just what is the Democrats afraid of in this film?
John Kerry can go around the country, spreading fear into the youth and seniors of this nation, on baseless assumptions and call it free speech but a television station can't air a documentary?

Replace "pitifullest" with "organized" and I'd agree with you.

And 'Stolen Honor' is even less of a documentary than Fahrenheit 9/11 is.

While the Democrats may take joy in an attempt to bring down Sinclair, in the end it the people who work at Sinclair who will remember that the Democratic party are the ones who caused their economic status. This is another example of how the Democratic party has become brown shirts taking down anything or anybody who dares to say something about their guy, Kerry.

Why do you assume that just because a POW is against Kerry that he is on the Republican payroll.

Stolen Honor is historical. Senate testamony. News footage.
Interviews with people who lived through the POW camps.
Even the interviews are edited--which is why one of the POWs in the film is suing the director. His interview was chopped up and the meaning of his words was changed. If you discredit Moore for his tactics, you have to also fault Carlton Sherwood.
The POWs talk about their capture and brutal treatment, and then talk about how they hate Kerry. Kerry's testimony is not offered as fact--especially because it is misrepresented. They are relying on emotion to sway the viewer--not facts. It is a 45-minute Swift Boat Ad.
